They don’t have a way unless everyone loses. If Oklahoma State wins tonight they will be behind them and probably Notre Dame too.
The committee will put in a 2-L Bama before putting in Ohio State

Especially if their 2nd loss is to Auburn then they beat Georgia to win the SEC. Ohio State doesn't have the lifeline of a possible conference championship left. Have to think they're out without utter chaos.
yeah it looks like it is shaping up for the final argument to be a 1-loss Oklahoma State vs. a 2-loss Alabama. Yeah Notre Dame only has 1 L and are in the mix, but idk if they put them thru they have some ugly wins and they have not been impressive at all.
It would depend on how good of an L Alabama has to Georgia in the title game. If it comes down to the final play or OT or something like that, Bama will probably get it. If Bama gets clobbered, that much it a tougher sell.
Ohio State road to the playoff is probably something like:
- Oklahoma beats OKST
- Auburn to beat Bama + Bama to lose to Georgia in the SEC title game
- Michigan to L in the B1G title game (but then that makes OSU's L today look that much worse)
- Cincy to L in the AAC title game
The biggest winner today is Cincy. They are a lock unless they slip in the AAC title game. UGA and Cincy are in. Michigan is in if they win. Bama is probably in if they beat Auburn and fight UGA to the bitter end

When the rankings come out, Ohio State will be at the back of the line. They’ll be the last team under consideration going into the final week, probably 1 spot ahead of Baylor. Beyond that, they’re going to need Michigan in the playoff with them. And then can Cincinnati be under Notre Dame if they lose? Both of those teams would have to be out. Baylor probably has to win the Big 12, yet they will have maybe 2 better wins than Ohio State and probably not be in the mix.
So they need as much chaos as possible, and possibly includes Alabama losing to Auburn

Nah, a 2 loss Bama will be ahead of them, provided they beat Auburn today of course. Georgia, Michigan, Cincy and Oklahoma St. if they take care of business and Bama should end ahead of them(plus prolly Notre Dame). Very little chance OSU is top 4 this year.

I don’t know what it looks like, but I’m confident he is a top 5-worthy pick. Especially since the Jaguars will have one of the picks.

Bama would be be better off losing to Auburn and beating Georgia than vice-versa. Although it certainly looks like Alabama wouldn't have a chance in hell the way they're playing right now.

If they got problems with Auburn’s pass rush, Georgia is gonna maul them.
